Nestled at 2,050m in the Kullu Valley, Manali is India's adventure hub — skiing at Solang, crossing Rohtang Pass (3,978m), paragliding, river rafting on the Beas, and the ancient Hadimba Temple surrounded by deodar cedar forest.

Honest take for Jul: Monsoon season — heavy rainfall expected. Good for nature lovers, but outdoor travel can be challenging. (peak crowds.)
